All regionsThe heart of the Costa del Sol

Marbella

The Golden Mile, Puerto Banús and the old town — Marbella remains the coast's most recognised address, with the deepest market for prime resale and new-build alike.

Buying in Marbella

Marbella is where the Costa del Sol's international reputation was made, and it remains the address that holds value best when the wider market softens. From the Golden Mile and Sierra Blanca to Nueva Andalucía's golf valley and the old town, the municipality contains half a dozen quite different markets within fifteen minutes of each other.

The lifestyle

Mornings on the beach path, lunch in the old town's orange square, an afternoon on one of the golf valley's three courses and dinner in Puerto Banús — all without moving the car more than ten minutes. Marbella works year-round, which is why so many owners here end up living rather than holidaying.

Local highlights

Puerto Banús: Marina, flagship boutiques and the coast's best-known nightlife, five minutes from Nueva Andalucía.
The Golden Mile: Between the town and Banús: gated estates, the Marbella Club and Puente Romano.
Golf valley: Las Brisas, Los Naranjos and Aloha within a single valley behind Banús.
Schools: Aloha College, Swans and the German school all within the municipality.
